Hi, This is not a right/wrong question, but why we keep copyright of companies/persons in a specfile? Is there really anyone who will steal that? Or, eg: 1. I wrote my copyright in a specfile, after 70 years, there's little chance that my original code still in it. why should I still own that file? just for the naming? but common names like gcc.spec exist everywhere. 2. After I ran spec-cleaner manually or OBS ran obs-service-format_spec_file automatically, for a very simple specfile, it is most likely that the whole file got "rewritten" by the program, the only exception might be the reserved words like "%prep" or "make". isn't the author of the specfile automatically changed to one of the obs-service-format_spec/spec-cleaner/the specfile template/the rpm project authors? And: If I wrote the copyright, then in some cases the specfile will get included in commercial products like SLE. If one day I said I do not authorize SUSE to use my specfile, what will they do? remove the package completely? or just rewrite the specfile? If they rewrite the specfile, should I say, oh they copyed my work. because there's little chance that they know whether I wrote the specfile from scratch or I generated it from our specfile template. If I own the specfile, the skeleton will also be owned. but how can a person write a specfile without following the specfile guideline? And how could the skeleton be owned by others? they're initialized by RPM project authors...
